No - I run Windows 7, which doesn't use SanBoot. The support is native to
the OS.

I've pushed out sanbootconf-0.9.9:

  http://git.ipxe.org/release/sanbootconf/sanbootconf-0.9.9.zip

which attempts to fiddle the iBFT as necessary.  Any chance you could test
this with your DHCP server configured to hand out the "real" gateway
address, and see if it fixes the problem?
